Torque Lock (Automatic Transmission)

If you are parking on a hill and you do not shift your

transmission into PARK (P) properly, the weight of the

vehicle may put too much force on the parking pawl

in the transmission. You may ﬁnd it difficult to pull the

shift lever out of PARK (P). This is called “torque

lock.” To prevent torque lock, set the parking brake and

then shift into PARK (P) properly before you leave

the driver’s seat. To ﬁnd out how, see “Shifting

Into PARK (P)” listed previously in this section.

When you are ready to drive, move the shift lever out of

PARK (P) before you release the parking brake.

If torque lock does occur, you may need to have another

vehicle push yours a little uphill to take some of the

pressure from the transmission parking pawl, so you can

pull the shift lever out of PARK (P).

Shifting Out of Park (P)

Your vehicle has an automatic transmission shift lock

control system which locks the shift lever in PARK (P)

when the ignition is in the off position. In addition,

you have to fully apply your regular brake before you

can shift from PARK (P) when the ignition is in ON.

See Automatic Transmission Operation on page 2-25.

As a reminder, you will see a message in the Driver

Information Center (DIC) that will say PRESS BRAKE

BEFORE SHIFT within 15 seconds unless the brake

is pressed.

If you cannot shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure on

the shift lever and push the shift lever all the way

into PARK (P) and release the shift lever button as you

maintain brake application. Then press the shift lever

button and move the shift lever into the gear you wish.
